Nong Prajak Park

Our neighborhood is only a couple miles from the coolest park in the city. Nong Prajak Park is a small lake surrounded by two paths (one for running, one for biking). It is a surprisingly well-planned park (aside from the lack of drainage system at the kids playground which renders every slide unusable during the rainy season) with a pretty water fountain, wide paths and areas for exercising (one day I'll post pictures of the crowd of hula-hoopers that gather every night) and lots of trees and gazebos for shade.

The best part of the park for the kids of course, is the lake itself. There are tons of fish that love to be fed and Ezra and Eli can't get enough of it. For 75 cents you can get a loaf of bread to feed the fish. Usually we tear up the pieces but sometimes we throw whole pieces in to attract the bigger fish. David's dream is to take an entire loaf, mash it into one big ball, and chuck it in the water to see what the fish think of that. I'm not sure that fish are meant to eat bread but I try not to think about it because it would ruin our fun.
